Sewing for Christmas

I have always wanted to do a handmade Christmas. I am a little reserved about the idea because I really don't know if what I make, is what someone would like to receive. I have been sewing while I recover here at home, and here are some presents I plan on giving!This is a "play" diaper bag, along with pretend wipes and diapers. I plan on getting a baby doll to include in this present!

Next up is a little shoulder bag that was made from a skirt! I made a matching headband out of the skirt as well and plan to fill the bag with "goodies" for a sweet little girl! With a flower clipped on to it:

Here is the bag without the flower clip:

Here is the fabric headband: This picture doesn't do it justice!

I made 3 of these little purses/handbags. They are perfect for inside your purse, and if you want to take just the necessities, then you can pull it out and have everything you need. Inside this little bag includes a divider, a cell phone pocket, and a sleeve for cards/id's! I plan on filling these with "goodies" as well!

I love the pretend play diaper bag. What a great gift idea for a little girl. Those pouches are adorable! I've seen some like this before and want to make them but have never sewn on a zipper and am intimidated by them. I hope to overcome this fear soon. :)Great job on the gifts. I know I would love to receive one of those.
